Yosef Peretz’ “Tokyo” Collection

The future starts in Tokyo. Or at least that’s what happens in Yosef Peretz‘ vision for which, he collaborated with the costume designer Miki Avni.
The Israeli designer, who celebrates a full decade in fashion this
year, took this alpha city as a reference point to project his surreal
visualizations on his
collection. Meticulously detailed prints are keeping the eye busy by
creating tricky illusions of faces. Just like Giuseppe Arcimboldo did,
but minus the vegetables. I had the pleasure to meet Yosef Peretz on a
fashion tour in Tel Aviv where Trendland was invited by the Kinetis organization,
to see his work in person and become part of a graphic and adventurous
world made out of chiffon and satin. Getting lost in translation,
anyone?
